Biblical Context Matters

The Middle Eastern Lens was first brought to us through Jesus & Women Study.  Not familiar to you?  Check out episodes 23 thru 33!  It helped us to better learn about the heart and character of Jesus through learning about His world in the 1st-century and to begin to look at the words in the Bible from the perspective of the original audience.

Now we have an opportunity to once again sit under the remarkable teaching of Kristi McLelland through her new 7-week study, where we’ll begin to see through that same Middle Eastern Lens, the outward expansion of the early church and how the gospel began to spread along the ground.

Today let's take a look at how a heart of generosity can change EVERYTHING!

Are you ready?  Let’s grow!

"When reading the Bible, have you ever skipped over a verse, because it just didn't make any sense? 🤨

The footnotes or cross-references don't lend a whole lot more help decipher its meaning, so you just keep reading, figuring that it must not be important.

The word "glean" in Ruth 2:2 had been lost on me for many years..."

"Jesus is telling us that His purpose in coming was not to nullify the Old Testament, including the Seven Feasts but rather to fulfill everything the feasts were designed to teach God’s people."

This is a quote from the author, Erin Davis, who we've been blessed to learn from these last eight weeks through her study, 7 Feasts: Finding Christ in the Sacred Celebrations of the Old Testament.

I’m excited to share that the Intentional Filling community was able to wrap up our study in the BEST way possible by sitting down and chatting with Erin. We were able to ask some great follow-up questions and even spend some time in the Word of God together!

So grab your notebook, cause you’re gonna want it to take all the notes, and sit back and enjoy this conversation with Erin Davis, the author of 7 Feasts: Finding Christ in the Sacred Celebrations of the Old Testament.
